Some time ago a droll fellow, with a
twinkle in his eye, from this side of

at Hawarden. Leland is noted for
his love Of a good joke, and especial
ly when the laugh falls on some one
else. A representative gang Of ham
gers-on were in the store, when the
Union Co. man found a place on the
counter, and jokes and sells dubbed
up freely. They were talking Of the
ps~culiafities Of negro character. The

THECOURT.

Curiosity always attracts large
crowd to the opening of the General
Sessions Court, and last Monday was
no exception to the rule. Indeed the
number of persons in attendance was
considerably larger than ordinarily,
owing, in great measure, to the in
terest the case of the State VS.. Shan
non has excited, and which was ex-
pected to be tried on the first day OF
the sessions At the appointed hour
Judge Nitherspoon with our Solici-
tor and stenographer entered the
Court room, followed by q host of ju-
rors, htigants, witnesses, friends and
curious idlers. On the calling of the
jury roll, Is grand and 80 petit Jurors
answered to their names. The Grand
Jury was organized by the appoint
ment Of Mr.. F. P. Cooper, foreman.
The Judges charge was distinguished
fol its elearness and fulness. He ex-
planned at length the important du,
ties of s Grand Juror, and ended by
5mpressing upon the jury before him
their obligation to discharge the duty
they had assumed. The case against
Shannon, which was continued from
last Court, was first called. Immedi-
ately spat occurred between the op-
posing lawyers about the day for trial.
Wednesday was at last fixed upon.
The first case to be tried was the
State vs.. Charley Williams, continued
from last court, charged with selling
whiskey without license. Several
of the prosecuting witnesses for the
State were unavoidably absent, and
Williams, Though generally .eiieved to
be guilty, was acquitted by the jury
for the want of sufficient proof.
During the day the Grand Jury re-
ported the following bills:
Sam Fleming: larceny of live stock.
Robert Conyers: selling whiskey
without license.
George Humphrey: carrying con-
cealed weapons and assault with in
tent to kill.
William Godfrey: housebreaking
and larceny.

LOWER TAXES.

The speech of Hon. James E. Tin
dial before the Clarendon Agricultural
Society on the 2eth Of January, pub
ished in this paper to-day, merits
reading and thought and study, by
the farmers and taxpayers generally
of the County. Mr.. Tindal first ez-
plains the object OF what is known as
the Farmers Movement" 1t is two
fold he claims. The first is to en-
tighten each other (the farmers) s'by
discussion and friendly intercourse,
upon matters which concern them q;
farmers; secondly, the consideration
of all public measures which affect
them as citizens" The subject of
taxation, Mr.. Tindal holds, comes with
in the province OF the Farmers move
ment" for discussion; he argues s'they
are bound to the soil, and hence they
suffer most from unwise measure"
x x 3. The State levy of / l-2
mills, Nh. Tindal thinks, can be re-
duoed in time by reducing the rate OF
interest on the public debt,Sby reduc-
ing the cost of the lunatic asylum,
and increasing the income Of the pen
itentiarv. Mr.. Tindal's views in this
respect accord with the expressed
opinion of Ex-Gov. Hagood publish
In this paper not long since. The
TINES agrees with III. Tindal that the
administration of the county govern
ment is too costly and will heartily
join him in efecting many of the re-
forms he proposes. One of the means
to this end, advocated by Mr.. linda !,
that the tax levy be sufficient to pay
cash for the county work, has tbeen
urged upon our legislators time and
again, in the editorial columns of the
TINES. Mr. Tindal is right in what
he says ABOUT the constable work of
the Trial Justice at Manning. The
amount, whether great or small, should
be fixed, and then provision made for
its annual payment. We do not see.
however, any way by which this ez-
pense can with safety be made less,
except it be in reducing the number
of Trial Justices. Men of capacity,
and good men only, should I'll these
positions, and the Office IS intended
TO be renuneratire the amount now
fixed by law is not by any means too
much. This county, it Will be remem-
bered, was exempted from the amend
eatory Act diTding the work of Trial
justices into defined territories. And
we think wisely, for from several coun-
ties we learn that it has given dissat-
isfaction.
The reasons given BY alr. Tindal
for the aboGshment of the School
Commissioners Office are very good.
There can be no doubt but that that
Office is little more than sinecure; the
small duties required can well be dis
charged by the Clerk of the Court,
Probate or some othere&eer, with
very little expense. These reforms,
ifever effected, would materially dim
inish the county taxes, and with the
State paying the expense of the
Circuit Courts, as proposed by Mr..
Tindal, the administration Of the
county affairs viii be cheap to boast
OF.
